American rockers Kings Of Leon were slapped by Jimmy Fallon as they contributed to a sketch for the host’s TV chat show, ‘Late Night’.
In an obscure and slapstick skit, the band adopted the the role of receptionists at the fictional ‘Slappington Manor’, where Fallon was visiting as a guest. The band also donned wigs and shorts to help the presenter check-in by taking part in a slapping contest.
The sketch culminated in Fallon penis-slapping the Kings of Leon guitarist, Matthew Followill, as he attempted to help the host with his luggage. The band took part on the show on Friday (November 12th) in order to promote their latest album ‘Come Around Sundown’.
